Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a central heating installation take?

Central heating installation typically takes 1-3 days, depending on the size and complexity of your system. Our engineers will give you an estimate of the time required.

Do I need to replace my radiators when installing a new central heating system?

Our engineers will assess the condition of your existing radiators. If they are in good condition, they may not need replacing. However, if they are outdated or inefficient, we'll advise on replacements to ensure your system works optimally.

What types of boilers do you install?

We install a wide range of boilers, including combi, system, and conventional boilers, from leading manufacturers such as Worcester Bosch, Vaillant, Ideal, and Baxi. Our Gas Safe engineers will help you select the best boiler installation option for your London home.

What is the cheapest central heating system to install?

The cheapest central heating system to install in the UK is typically a gas combi boiler system, especially if your home already has a gas supply and existing pipework. Combi boilers are compact, efficient, and avoid the need for additional components like hot water cylinders or tanks. However, in properties without gas, electric panel heaters or electric storage heaters may be the cheapest to install, though they are more expensive to run.

Do you need planning permission to install central heating?

A central heating system can usually be installed or replaced without planning permission, particularly if it is internal. However, if the work involves external alterations, such as adding a flue, or if the property is listed or located in a designated area, planning permission might be required.

How much does a central heating service cost?

In the UK, a central heating service, involving a boiler service, costs approximately £60-£135. There are different service requirements for gas, oil, and combi boilers.

Do you need planning permission to install central heating?

Most of the time, installing or upgrading central heating in your house doesn't require planning approval. If your property is listed or in a conservation area, you should verify with your local council. That may be the lone exception. For everyone else, you’re good to go.

What type of central heating system should I choose for my home?

The type of system you choose depends on factors like the size of your property and your hot water needs. Our engineers will guide you through the options—combi boilers, system boilers, and traditional boilers—and help you choose the one that fits best with your home's requirements in London.

Do you install CO2 alarms?

Yes, sure we can install or check your CO2 as it is essential—and legally required. We can send a handyman to install one for you.
